Hi Nadiya,
I sent my girl to a playgroup at Blk 664, I find the teachers quite bad, cannot even speak proper English or Mandarin, so I withdraw her after one month.
Then I put her at a playgroup at Jurong Point 5th storey. At first they have a very good teacher, but she left and the new teachers are very inexperienced. Then one day they told me a white board fell onto my girl, I was so angry with their lack of safety, I withdraw my girl.
I will check out Whispering Hearts. Do they need school uniform ? Need to pay one extra month school fees when you register ?

Nadiya,
Oh that is a childcare centre. I have someone to look after my girl at home, only need 2 hour playgroup. Do they have 2 hour programs ?
The playgroup at Jurong Point is Clement's playhouse. It is quite expensive, and not worth it given the quality of the teachers now.

Hi Ladies
I hope u dun get bored w my birth story, cos i hv been posting on 2 of the o threads as well..so dun mind if u hv read it b4.
Here's my birth story
10 Apr, 6pm - Visited gynae in the even for the check up to c whether my cervix has dilated but was told that it has only soften. Gynae offered us 2 opions to either wait for a max of 1 more wk for the contractions to take place naturally or induce the next day. Hub & I decided to induce since if after waiting for a wk & if bb still didn't want to come out, still need to b induced. Plus, we were worried tt stayingg too long migght not b gd for bb..so was told by gynae to admit into TMC the same night at 9pm.
10 Apr, 8pm - After taking dinner, head to TMC for admission
10 Apr, 10pm - Nurse inserted tablet into vagina & was told to stay in bed for at least an hr.
Didn't manage to sleep thruout e night
11 Apr, 4am - Slight contractions similar to period pain but bearable
11 Apr, 6am - Admitted into labour ward & put on CTG to check 4 contractions.
11 Apr, 7am - Wheeled into operation room & put on drip as contractions mild. Contractions became stronger but still bearable
11 Apr, 7.30am - Gynae came & broke my waterbag. Rather painful as didn't expected it.
11 Apr, 8am to 9am - Contractions became closer & worse. Pain level increased & became unbearable. Given laughing gas.
11 Apr, 9.15am - Buay tahan oredi, laughing gas like no use one & asked for epidual instead
11 Apr, 9.30am - Was informed tt needed ano half hr more for the doc to arrive to inject the epidual. Felt like dying oredi.
11 Apr,9.45am - Couldn't tahan anymore, felt a strong urge to shit & was worried abt e mess. Shouted to hub tt i wanted to shit & he told e nurse abt e pool of blood which came out suddenly..nurse told him tt it would b too late to get e epidual injection as bb is coming out soon.
11 Apr, 9.57am- Gynae came & told me to take a deep breathe & at the next contraction to push as long as i could. Followed his instruction & ggave a long hard push & bb's head appeared. Withthe next push, bb Ivec is out. Was really happy.
11 Apr, 10am - Gynae stitched back my epitosomy wound and though can feel the stitching, i was more anxious to c my little bb. Asked nurse to place Ivec on my chest after they were done with e necessary stuffs. Fall in love immediately when i c him. Called out his name & he seem to understand ^_^
11 Apr, 10.30am - Wheeled back to my room with Ivec in my arms. Really feel a sense of achievement.

Hi shylyn,
Congrats 2 your newborn. Thks for sharing your delivery process with all of us. Hope i will be like u, without the need of epidural.
I went to see my gynae last sat. i saw my little baby. At first, she is sleeping, the next min, both my hubby n i saw my little baby doing exercise. Hehehe. At that very moment, i feel so close to my baby. My hubby is amazed too. I am looking forward to my next appt, which is 4 weeks later.

Wow the babies indeed cute...
Connz,
Use ur method...bring bb down for a walk tis morning, approach the aunties doing exercise there. There's an aunty who is interested, but she say she got no experience. Heard them saying there's another aunty looking for bb to bbsit. But her hse got 3 children, youngest in primary 1. What do we look for when finding a nanny for our baby? Can tell me? Although i'm a mother of two, but tis is the 1st time i'm looking for nanny. My elder was looked after by myself when we were in france. So dunno what to look out for when choosing a nanny?

Wanna ask mothers who hv bf ur bbs, did ur nipples hv blisters after expressing ur bm? Mine just recovered & now it's showing signs of blisters again. Quite sad cos i hv to throw away my milk frm tt breast cos afraid bb will take in e blood if e blisters broke. Any mtds to prevent blisters? I hv tried pumping 4 5min & resting 4 another few min but again it happened.

dunno if it's the same for blister.
